Benjamin Netanyahu: “We certainly didn't carpet bomb, which we could have done…”

“We didn't. Do people have different ratios as well? You don't, actually, but that's not the point. It certainly wasn't 6 to 1 or 7 to 1, and We certainly didn't carpet bomb, which we could have done right away. We've lost a lot of people by my refusal and the IDF's own mores in making sure that doesn't happen.” (03:33–03:37)
